A Bad Nasal Orqan.

For over four years have been a great
sufferer from terrible form of Nasal Ca
tarrh. was greatly annoyed with a con
slant roaring in my head and my hearing
became very much impaired.
The discharge from my nose was prOfuse
and very offensive. and my general health
impaired. tried most all prominent ply
sicians. but they did not cure me, and [
used various advertised preparations with
out benefit.
One day | chanced to read a remarkable
article written by a prominent citizen of
Athens, Ga stating that he had been per
mantly cured by the Use of eight bottles of
b. B. B.-BOtanic Blood Balm. Being
skeptical on the subject, wrote to him on
the subject and received most encourag-
ing answer to the effect that he had been
cured long enough to 5e thoroughly salts
ned that no return of the disease would
eusue.
then sent to the drug store Of T. f..
Smith x Bro, and purchased b. b. b.,
and TO my utter astonishment and satisfac-
ton. the use of ten bottles has restored my
general health, stopped the roaring sensa-
ton. entirely healed and cured the nasal
catarrh and am proud to recommend a
blood remedy with such powerful curative
properties. | shall continue its Use little
| longer and feel confident that will be en-
tIrely cured of one of the most obstinate
cases of nasal catarrh in the country.
The business men Of our town know OF
my case. \. c. EDWARDS,

The eleven new postage stamps just issued
by the British postmaster general form a
miniature picture gallery in themselves. The
cent stamp is bright yellow, two cents red
brown, three cents purple and green, four
cents green and crimson, five cents purple
and blue, six cents a color described as pre-
sumedly yellow eight cents green, ten cents
purple and blue, twelve cents pink, eighteen
cents purple with blue fringe, twenty-four
cents green and white. Every known law Of
astheticism is ruthlessly broken by one or
other of these combinations, and the only re-
deeming feature of the series is a still further
act of barharism. A-tigure is printed right
over the queens head showing the number of
pence each stamp Is worth, and this destroys

LIFE ON THE STAGE.

The Work of An Actor Terribly Trying
to the Physical system.
No, l can't see that men and women who
work honestly, as thousands and tens of
thousands of them do, upon the stage, can
reasonably face an end SO terrible more than
men and women IN other lines of life. But

The actors of America are treated like pigs.

Portable But across the stage sweep the
wild winds of winter unchecked, and in the
damp and dreary dressing rooms we find
either an excessive, unchecked steam heat or
a bitter, biting blast from the unclean cellar.
Actors face the footlights, which burn and
blazen up into their very eyes, reversing
absolutely the idea of light as born in the
mind of the Creator. which comes from
above, not from below. They are compelled
TO fashion their faces in an unnatural way.
The women dress TO suit the times. Taking

SO far as unnatural excitement Of late
hours, impure air, unprotection from cold
and heat, the glaring of the blazing gas, the
ins and outs of winter weather and summer
solstice go, dare say the life of an actor IS

WHAT THE SHAkERS BELIEVE ABOUT
DISEAsE.-They have learned from many
yoars experience that nine-tenths Of all the
diseases of mankind arise from imperfect
digestion of food; for this reason they have
spent years of labor III preparing the Sha
ker Extract Of Roots (Siegers Syrup and
it operates like a charm in all cases of indi
gestion.
1t is not what We eat that makes us
strong. but that which we digest. This is
the doctrine of the Mount Lebanon Shakers.
People who are weak and languid, tired
and feeble often wonder. The reason is
that the food eaten does not give strength
because it is not digested. The Shaker EX
thract of Roots iSiegrl's Syrup will restore
the digestion to a healthy condition and
drive away the headache. the pains i'll the
side and back. the distress after eating aud
